Before we should adjust the back off min and max values, we need to determine why 1.2.11 is having a hard time updating 1.3.6. 1.3.6 is just receiving updates, so it's 1.2.11 that "seems" to be misbehaving. So... Is there anything in the errors log on 1.2.11? It wouldn't hurt to check 1.3.6, but I think 1.2.11 is where we will find our answer. If there is noting in the log, then turn on replication logging and do your test update. Once the update hits 1.3.6 turn replication logging off. Then we can look at the logs and see what happens with your test update. But as requested here is the backoff min & max info: http://www.port389.org/docs/389ds/design/replication-retry-settings.html > >> Thanks a lot, >> Trev >> >> >> On 2018-02-18, 3:32 PM, "William Brown" <william@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> >> wrote: >> >> On Sat, 2018-02-17 at 01:49 +0000, Fong, Trevor wrote: >> > Hi Everyone, >> > >> > I’ve set up a new 389 DS cluster (389-Directory/1.3.6.1 >> > B2018.016.1710) and have set up a replication agreement from >> our old >> > cluster (389-Directory/1.2.11.15 B2014.300.2010) to a master >> node in >> > the new cluster.
